Daisy the Hamster


Well, it you didn't know, Brandee loves dogs. A lot. That is one of the highlights of going to her parents house, "the puppies!" And as soon as we have room for one then we will be getting one. So to be nice, and because she asked for one, on Valentines day i bought her a hamster. And if you buy a hamster, then you need a hamster ball of course. Daisy (thats what we named her) loves that ball. She goes everywhere she can. If we open the door she will take off down the hallway.
We are learning what she likes to eat. She is getting to know us. It took a few days for her to open up to us but now she lets us pick her up. If we let her, she will climb all over us.
We love her. She has a fun personality.

Grad in the Family!

Well, I did it I graduated cosmetology school! It only took me 16 months but its over. I graduated on Friday February 13th. It was such a relief and it felt so good walking out of the school that I have hated and knowing that I never have to go back.
That day Michael drove me to school and picked me up so we could celebrate together instead of me driving myself home all excited. That would have been lame. So after we left school which was about 4:10pm we drove home to change our clothes, because I was in black and after wearing all black for the last 16 months I probably wont wear it again for a long, long time. So anyway, we changed and then went out to celebrate.
We ate at Macaroni Grill because the wait at Olive Garden (our favorite) was almost an hour. I had been up late the last two nights ensuring that I would in fact graduate on Friday, so I was tired and didn't think I would make it that long. I had never eaten at Macaroni grill it was very good. Their bread is delicious and the service was very good.
All in all it was great day and I did it. I graduated school, its a great accomplishment.

Oh one last thing I am still waiting on my state board date. It will come in a few weeks. So lets hope it is sooner rather than later =/
